The Earfun Wave Pro offers excellent call quality, making it suitable for meetings and long conversations, and with its dynamic drivers and LDAC support, you'll enjoy high-quality music listening. It also boasts a long battery life, adding convenience for extended use, and its ear hooks enhance stability for light exercise. On the downside, it does not have active noise cancelling, which might be a deal-breaker if you're looking for silence in noisy environments. The Soundcore Space One, on the other hand, includes active noise cancelling to help block out ambient sounds, making it a better pick for air travel and focus in noisy spaces. However, its call quality is poor, which could be a significant limitation if you often take calls with your headphones. If you prioritize music and calls, the Earfun Wave Pro is the stronger choice, but if noise cancellation is a must-have for you, consider the Soundcore Space One. Both have similar prices, so your choice will hinge on these functional differences. Give Feedback

PC Magazine

Tim Gideon | September 2023
"The Anker Soundcore Space One noise-cancelling headphones are stylish, comfortable, and affordable. They offer better active noise cancellation than we expect for the price, and their sculpted audio impresses thanks to the adjustable EQ and support for the hi-res LDAC codec. Overall, they’re an excellent value and well worth your attention if you're on a budget."
